Editing 2d4chan:Policy

==Block Policy==

''The following is a proto-policy based on some thinking about how to deal with vandals.  All blocking decisions are made on a case-by-case basis, but this is generally where I will start.'' --[[User:AssistantWikifag|AssistantWikifag]] 21:04, 20 April 2012 (BST)

# Don't spam links to unrelated external sites -- we're here to talk about traditional games, not dodgy pharmaceutical websites or internet currencies.  If you're doing this, expect a permanent block.  Of course, if you're doing this, you're probably a spambot who will only be visiting us once anyway -- in which case, don't let the door hit you on the way out.
# Vandalizing pages (such as by inserting gibberish, false information, or personal attacks) is also not cool, and the same goes for removing or blanking pages and sections that you don't like.  If you've got a problem, use the discussion page, not the "undo" link.
## Related: think carefully before making major changes.  Not that change is bad, but it can raise tempers if done clumsily, and that way lies edit wars.  Again, talk it out on the discussion page if your jimmies are rustled.
## One-time offenses are not big deals.  Everybody has differing opinions, and everyone makes mistakes now and then.  This wiki is generally informal in tone, but the line between "humorous" and "offensive" or "stupid" or "trolling" is in different places for different people.  In any case, if the topic of contention is resolved more-or-less amicably and set aside, then no harm, no foul, and we all go home happy.  If vandalism persists, the admins may enforce a cool-down period by blocking the offending party or parties for a period between a few days and two weeks.
